When it comes to fitness, there are many approaches. But have you ever considered a fitness practice that combines functional strength and primal mobility, driven by the infectious energy of Afrobeats and rooted in a mission for inclusivity and empowerment?
MSINGI offers exactly this: an elemental, Afrocentric movement experience created to welcome all participants. Created by the visionary and award-winning Ingrid Knight-Cohee, MSINGI invites you to participate in something uniquely powerful—a new kind of movement that is not just a workout but a way to “work-on” yourself. You should consider joining this groundbreaking program as an MSINGI Instructor (known as a Master Trainer in the MSINGI world).
What is MSINGI?
MSINGI, which means “base” or “foundation” in Swahili, is a movement practice designed to cultivate functional strength and primal mobility. Inspired by the elements of Earth, Wind, and Fire, MSINGI classes are driven by the irresistible rhythms of Afrobeats and other African music genres, creating an immersive experience that will leave you feeling energized, connected, and empowered.
Far from a traditional workout, MSINGI is a “work-on” philosophy that emphasizes community, self-empowerment, and well-being. The class format, arranged in a circular formation, offers a refreshing alternative to conventional workouts. It brings people together, embracing body type, age, and fitness level differences. With 11 foundational movements and intensities that adapt to any participant, MSINGI provides a new pathway to functional strength, mobility, and self-confidence.
Why You Should Become an MSINGI Master Trainer
MSINGI’s mission is to inspire the world with Afrocentric movement, and its vision is simple yet profound: movement for all, resilience in rhythm, healthier people, happier communities, and a healthier planet.
You can become a MSINIG Master Trainer on Nov. 16th at 9am PT/12pm ET via a live zoom certification with the founder, Ingrid Knight-Cohee. This course is 4 hours long, but comes with a strong CEC punch well over that time frame. Find out more here.
Becoming a Master Trainer means joining a community that genuinely cares about these values. MSINGI Master Trainers are not just fitness instructors—they’re part of a purpose-driven movement that strives to create a lasting impact on people’s health, happiness, and well-being.
As a Master Trainer, you’re not just teaching fitness—you’re pioneering a cultural movement and embodying a global mission. Here’s why joining MSINGI could be the most meaningful step in your fitness career:
1. Be Part of a Groundbreaking Movement
MSINGI is the world’s first Afrocentric functional movement practice, offering a diverse and inclusive approach to fitness. As a Master Trainer, you’ll introduce participants to a unique way of moving inspired by African culture, rhythms, and values. You’ll help people find joy in movement, celebrate diversity, and promote resilience in rhythm—all while being at the forefront of a fitness revolution.
MSINGI is crafted to build functional strength and improve primal movement patterns, which are foundational for all types of movement. By focusing on primal mobility, MSINGI enables participants to move more effectively daily. The unique blend of strength and mobility training and the joy of rhythmic movement makes MSINGI a well-rounded, effective program that stands out from traditional strength training or mobility programs.
2. Empower Your Participants Through Inclusivity
Fitness should be accessible to everyone, and MSINGI lives this value. Our classes are designed to meet people where they are, regardless of age, fitness level, or experience. As a Master Trainer, you’ll help foster a safe and judgment-free space where participants feel comfortable working on themselves at their own pace. MSINGI celebrates individuality and encourages a community where everyone belongs, embodying values of kindness, empowerment, and well-being.
3. Engage with Elemental Movement Inspired by Nature
MSINGI’s movements are inspired by the landscape and animals of the Maasai Mara in East Africa, grounding the practice in a connection to nature. The program’s elements—Earth, Wind, and Fire—symbolize different intensities, allowing trainers to adjust the practice for various audiences. This elemental framework not only provides trainers with the flexibility to tailor the class to suit individual needs but also fosters a sense of natural rhythm and flow in movement that enriches the participant experience.
4. Infuse Your Classes with the Spirit of Afrobeats
Music is a key component of MSINGI, which is why we are a proud partner of this program. The Afrobeats-inspired MSINGI playlists on VIBES add a vibrant energy that creates a powerful and uplifting atmosphere. The pulsing rhythms of Afrobeats are designed to move you from the inside out, making participants feel every beat and encouraging them to connect deeply with the movement. MSINGI uses real African artists and music genres, setting it apart from other fitness programs and making it a fresh, enriching experience for instructors and participants alike.
